What common ground? You know you should stop the art when people dont understand what you are trying to say. Form follows function.


@LeoNatan: Yes, thats art right there. Read it in the "Dot dot dot" voice for full effect. http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/558516

I tried playing a game in native (norwegian) once, but I didn't really understand shit, so I had to change to english.
Same goes with all my devices (pc, phone, car, truck etc).
I even speak/write english with some people who speaks norwegian, because fuck the system.

German always worked for me, since it was the language all my PC mags came in. French sound really weird though.

English on everything. I hate trying to help someone with a Swedish Language OS and applications since it takes twice as long to find the right settings etc. since the translation mess me up. I've used English on computers since my first ZX Spectrum 48K+ (no choice obviously, not until the Amiga but I always chose English OS while installing both English and Swedish keymaps).
